Quote:From the technical part earlier in this blog, we basically can assume that the exploit has been possible from the beginning of player owned structures in EVE. After digging through terabytes of data we know that the exploit existed on a small scale until 2007. Until then, the cost of setting up POSes and operating them probably outweighed the benefit of large scale operations and hence these operations were able to stay under the radar.

Does this mean that other players were aware of and using this exploit even earlier than those who have already been banned and, if so, what action has been or is going to be taken against these accounts?

The report measures the effect of the exploit against the entire Eve economy. What was the effect of the exploit on the T2 market itself and what percentage of that market does the exploited ISK represent over the period in question?
